Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday hit out at the opposition for bringing in a no-confidence motion against his government, saying the NDA and the BJP will return to power breaking all previous records in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Replying to the debate on the motion in the Lok Sabha, the prime minister said people have repeatedly shown trust in his government.
"People of the country have shown trust in our government again and again. I am here to show my gratitude to the crores of the people of the country," he said.
Modi said it's a blessing of God that the opposition has brought in a no-confidence motion.
“Opposition brought such a motion in 2018 also. I had said it was their floor test, not of the government and I was proven right. No-confidence motion always lucky for us; this one also will ensure we will return with record-breaking mandate,” Modi said.
The prime minister also attacked the opposition parties for not letting discussion on a number of bills related to the country's development, saying they have shown that 'dal' (party) is bigger than 'desh' (country) for them.
"You have betrayed people," he said.
The debate on no-confidence motion, moved by the opposition parties on the violence in Manipur, began on Tuesday.
